Chapter 33: The Imperial Palace

I'm really sorry, I worked overtime today and came back late. Starting

From beginning to end, even when the light from the man in black flew in, Rhaegar had no intention of resisting, and in his heart, this mysterious and powerful being would never hurt him, as if he would never hurt himself.

In the real world, Rhaeggar, whose soul was about to be shattered, slowly opened his eyes, a glimmer of penetrating light flashed in his eyes, although his strength did not increase, he already had a tenfold understanding of the rules and composition of this world, and the cage that was once unbreakable in his eyes was now full of flaws. With a slight snort, Rhaegar stretched out his hand and clicked almost casually at a certain part in front of him, and in an instant, the magic that bound him fell apart, turning into countless flying points of light, and then, the figure of the geist suddenly disappeared in place, and then appeared in the underground of the mage tower.

Like the human heart, any solid building has its most important part, which may be just a point, but it is the balance of all the forces that support a building, and any additional force exerted at such a balance point may cause the collapse of the entire building, and the ** Division Tower is no exception.

Looking at the foundation that emitted a white jade-like light in front of him and was protected by heavy magic, Rhaegar casually popped out a little starlight, and under the control of the geyser who fully mastered the rules of the world, this starlight easily broke through the outer defenses and landed on one of the seemingly inconspicuous masonry.

A roar full of fear and unwillingness came to Rhaeggar's soul, and the ** Master Tower immediately began to shake violently, and the ancient tower that was made of various magic materials and magic buildings, enough to resist the attack of forbidden arts, finally came to its own end at this moment, and before the magicians in the tower who felt that something was wrong had time to make a move, the collapsed building materials had buried them under the ruins as high as a mountain.

At the Palace of St. Endos, the battle between the Guards and the Demon Legion is still raging. While alarming the garrison in the city, the beacon of the call for help also made those court mages who had always been cultivating in their residences and rarely appeared in front of everyone know about the crisis that occurred in the palace despite receiving the salary paid by the empire. These powerful spellcasters were the first reinforcements to arrive, and their arrival finally tilted the balance of the battle in favor of the Empire, and just as the demons were losing their fighting spirit under the overwhelming magic, Philon and his men finally arrived at the palace. First published in:

"Charge!" Somme raised the greatsword in his hand and shouted at his knights, "For the glory of the knights!"

The captain of the Royal Knights pounced on the demons that were rushing towards him like a mad tiger, and these hideous creatures, which were at least half his height, did not terrify him in the slightest, but with a single sword, the head of a demon with three horns left his body forever, and the poor creature immediately turned into a cloud of black smoke and disappeared into thin air forever.

The commander's bravery greatly inspired his men, who shouted and lined up in orderly formation, charging their enemies like an endless tide of rage, and everywhere they passed, the inferior demons who relied only on brute force were all blurred into a cloud of flesh. Stepping on the corpses of these creatures from the Demon Realm, the brave and combative royal knights strode tirelessly, and soon cut through the formation of the demons, and joined the Royal Forest Army, which was greatly refreshed by the arrival of reinforcements.

No one noticed that while the two friendly troops, who had not had time to be polite, were once again engaged in the fierce battle with only a slight greeting, a small group of men and horses quietly left the battlefield and rushed to the depths of the palace.

Eighty percent of the Imperial Guards were fighting demons in the square in front of the palace gate, and the defense of the palace seemed extremely empty at this moment, in order to protect the safety of the emperor and important members of the royal family, the remaining troops were almost all concentrated in the emperor's dormitory and a few important places, and although the warning magic of the mages had enveloped the entire palace, these spells that were mostly against demons were obviously not of much use to humans, and the team that infiltrated the palace arrived at their destination with almost no obstacles.

Looking at the tall wall shrouded in the moonlight in front of him, a feeling that could not be described in words welled up in Fei Lun's heart, he took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and then waved his hand and gave the order to attack his subordinates.

As a prince, Fei Lun's martial arts can be ranked at least in the top five in the royal family, but this prince's best skill is not fighting on the frontal battlefield, to people's surprise, from the first day he took the sword, he showed a strong interest in the assassination skills that only people hiding in the shadows pay attention to- According to Philon, if he could not legitimately ascend to the throne, this skill would sooner or later get him everything he deserved, and if fate showed its fair side and put himself, an heir who was at least hundreds of times stronger than the waste, in that chair, then these tricks would also have a huge effect on his rule, at least, it would make those he didn't like but couldn't get rid of publicly, and at the same time prevent those who shared his hobbies from doing the same to him.

This thought and behavior was rightfully condemned by the emperor, but Fei Lun did not give up his idea, in fact, in his mansion and farm, there are at least hundreds of first-class killers who are proficient in various assassination skills, and these killers are one of Fei Lun's greatest dependences at this moment.

The killers, disguised as royal knights, quickly took off their obstructive armor and revealed their black tights underneath, and they silently approached the crown prince's chamber like leopards hunting in the night, quickly disappearing into the night. In terms of force, they may not be the match for the elite Guards, but in the dark night of the killers, they can destroy ten times their own enemies without their opponents knowing their existence.

Black-painted crossbow arrows and throwing knives were fired one after another from the killers, striking their targets, while others approached their targets in incredible fashion, taking the lives of the poor soldiers with daggers or daggers before they could even notice them.

Within a few minutes, all the outposts on the perimeter of the dormitory had been cleared.

Philen suddenly felt as if something was blocking his throat, making his voice a little distorted, but he still insisted on giving the order: "Rush in and kill everyone inside." ”

The Emperor's bedchamber.

Hasnor I sat on his throne with a grim face, draped in armor that had accompanied him for decades, and a sword that had drunk the blood of countless enemies hung from his side. As an emperor who had come from the battlefield, he was not afraid of any enemy, in fact, if it were not for the desperate dissuasion of his followers, he would have arrived on the battlefield by now, and fought against the invaders with his soldiers.

He feared for the safety of the other person.

Despite having two sons, Pharen was far less important than his ailing brother in the heart of Hasnor I. It's a feeling that is hard to put into words, and the brave, energetic and ambitious son always reminds him of his younger brother who fought for the throne with him, and coincidentally, like his uncle who was killed by his father, Philen also has red hair. In the royal family, this subjective dislike, combined with Philon's own foolishly displayed desire for undeserved things, was enough to cause His Majesty to see his own son as a potential threat.

"What's the news from the crown prince?" This is the seventh time Hasnor has asked Will about the situation, as early as the same time as he learned that the demons were attacking, the emperor sent the most elite men to protect the latter at the first time, if it weren't for Will's fragile body that could no longer move under the double fright of assassination and demon attack, he would even have someone take his son to his side- In this respect, His Majesty has some similarities with most parents, and they always invest more affection in those children who need to be cared for the most.

"According to the news from five minutes ago," replied one of the attendants respectfully, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is very good, and the new messenger should be on his way to arrive soon." ”

"He's here. Another attendant looked at the door of the main hall and said, a soldier of the Imperial Guards in armor had just passed the inspection of the guards and was hurrying in the direction of the emperor.

"Great Your Majesty!" According to etiquette, the soldier stopped more than ten meters away from Hasnor, knelt on one knee, and bowed his head at the same time, "I bring you news from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is safely under the protection of the soldiers. ”

The Emperor breathed a sigh of relief at the news, and he waved his hand to signal the soldier to stand down, but the latter did not immediately do as he was told.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has asked me to bring you a message," he said, raising his head as a strange light flashed in his eyes: "He is lonely now, and he wants you to accompany him." ”

Several alert guards stopped in front of Hasnor at the first time, and at the same time, several others drew their swords and rushed towards the strange-looking soldiers as fast as they could.

But their movements were still a step slower, and before they could arrive, the bodies of the soldiers who reported the news suddenly exploded, and the explosion created a wave of air that forced the guards to stop, and just under the cover of the splattered flesh and blood, a faint shadow quietly flashed past all the guards and came to Hasnor.
